Abstract: The invention relates to a process producing useful energy from thermal energy. An overall population of mobile particles confined to a unidirectional flow closed circuit of conducting channels (1-2-3-3?-4-1) is subjected to a conservative or effectively conservative force field. The circuit is thermally insulated with the exception of two non juxtaposed areas a first area (2-3) allowing thermal exchange for heating (Qin) from a warmer environment outside the circuit, a second area (4-1) allowing thermal exchange (Qout) for cooling, as necessary, by a colder environment outside the circuit. The closed circuit is provided with a load (3?-4;) designed to convert the energy it receives from the mobile particles flow to a useful output energy.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an installation and a process implementing the installation for converting thermal energy available in a given environment into useful energy. The installation and process use pressure differentials between a hot and a cold column of a pressurized fluid to create a continuous flow in a fluid. The flow drives in rotation elements the rotational energy of which is converted to a useful energy.

Abstract: A system and method for providing enhanced accessibility to applications. The system and method capture communication between applications, in which a source application calls, activates, uses the functionality of, or otherwise utilizes a target application. The communication, including the application calls and the relevant context including for example parameters, is captured and the details are analyzed. It is then determined what context or parameters are required for activating the target application. The target application is offered to users of additional applications, in which a context relevant for activating the target applications is determined or created.

Abstract: The present invention relates to novel granules and novel methods for manufacturing such granules. In particular, the invention describes granules formed by the agglomeration of resin wetted powder. When the powder is aerated before applying the resin to the powder, granules that are densely packed and homogeneous throughout are formed through agglomeration conditions. The densely packed granules are free of air bubbles greater than 10 microns in diameter. Such novel granules are useful in the manufacture of fabricated products of superior quality.

Abstract: A hole puncher formed as one piece of plastic molded into base, handle and receptacle portions hinged together by flexible, foldable joints. The one-piece plastic construction can be assembled quickly as a hole puncher by folding the portions into predetermined positions. A feature of the hole puncher is the use of a plastic locking strap connecting the handle and the base, for maintaining the handle folded over the base. Another feature is the use of translucent plastic material, enabling the user to visually check the desired alignment of pins with the paper to be punched, to assure proper location of the punched holes. The design provides an attractive, affordable and easily assembled design without sacrificing strength and durability.
